You should know that a defining period of my life occurred when I was pregnant with my twins. Their form of twinning is rare and dangerous, and spending a season in the hospital gave me lots of time for introspection. You can read about monoamniotic twins here, and my story here. You can see how I felt about coming home here.

If you are here for the first time, or even if you are not, you should know that Angie is a word loving, book devouring, designer jean obsessed mama to 5. With red hair. She's also a sunshine hoarding, organizationally devout, stringer of letters, words and paragraphs.

Besides running what she considers a tight ship at home, she's an excellent calendar annotator. Most of the time. She cooks dinner for her family every single night. Or so it seems. She would die without her X-large sized washer and dryer. With steam.She's a bit over the top in the frequency in which she vacuums. But she's working on it. She wants to be a published novelist. Someday. When her children are all in school she wants to finish her Master's Degree, so she can say she has one. She likes to be in charge. Basically all the time.

She loves the interaction that blogging affords her, and enjoys hearing from you.

Who We Are:The Out on a Limb Advertising Network is composed of four separate blogs, including Mama’s Losin’ It, Mayhem & Moxie, Scary Mommy, and Seven Clown Circus. Each site is authored by mothers who, in between balancing the challenges of family, life, and work, possess a passion for writing and sharing experiences through blogging. Our sites attract not only Power Moms – women age 25-54 with at least one child – but also online users who vary in gender, race, age, familial status, educational background, employment status, and geographic location.

What We Do:
The goal of the Out on a Limb Network is to utilize our collective web traffic to connect our readers with an equally diverse group of businesses. This is accomplished by hosting graphic ads on our respective blogs, as well as by creating customized social media packages for businesses.

Graphic Ads:
Our network offers graphic ad spots to businesses interested in marketing their products or services on-line. These 125 x 125 ads (shown below) are featured on all four blogs within our network.

Customized Social Media Packages:Our network also offers customized packages to businesses interested in creating a social media presence on websites such as Facebook, Flickr, and Twitter. Most impressive in this package is a personalized Twitter account with at least 1,000 followers by the end of the project. By partnering with our network, businesses can create a base of followers and fans to further enhance their marketing efforts.

We look forward to understanding how our network may support your business needs. Please contact our network at outonalimbadvertising@gmail.com to inquire about ad spots or for a complete list of social media packages.
